Daycare & preschool

On the following pages, we present our daycare and preschool formats for the collection and special exhibitions.

Our daycare and preschool programme is geared towards asking questions about art appropriate to the development and needs of the children. Playful and sensory methods are used to introduce children to the museum as a place for adventure and experimentation. The focus is on children’s joy in seeing, thinking and experiencing.

All our offerings are dialogue-based and interactive. We always concentrate on a small selection of works. Children are able to try out creative techniques while looking at the originals. For courses 90 minutes or longer, an activity in the studio is possible.

We recommend limiting the group size to 12 children for daycare centres and 20 children for preschools.

On request, we can also adapt formats to different educational levels.

Please book your daycare or pre-school tour via the HAMBURG MUSEUM SERVICE.
